As we are all aware, conflicts and bullying in school has become a major problem. Increasingly, it interferes with the education process because it contributes to tension, hostility and violence between students and between students and teachers/administrators.
The idea of using mediation to resolve conflicts and bullying in school is becoming more widespread. Mediation produces a better outcome than using physical punishment, suspension, expulsion and detention.
In the tradition of our Effectiveness Training courses, this program is experiential and practical, including workbook exercises, short instructor input and demonstrations. In addition, there are also several realistic and challenging mediation role plays which give students the opportunity to practice being mediators during their training experience.
Students will learn:
Duration: 16 hours (6 x 2 &1/2 half hour sessions ) or whatever configuration suits your needs. Workshops can be planned around your school’s schedules.
Contact ETIA to discover when these skills can be shared with your students.
Parents are also urged to advise their children’s Principals about these workshops.
